silversmith Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 hello, im having problems with my car heater. its stuck blowing out hot air even with the dials set to cold. originally when i bought the car the heater control only turned from cold to about half way around, so i had very little heat, but it seemed to control the heat in the way one would expect, cold was cold, and as far as i could turn the dial i'd get some heat. i investigated the control panel and found some of the plastic moulding was broken and it had been bodged back together by someone in the cars past. instead of bodging again i opted for a new control panel which i installed without problem, but now i only get hot air no matter the settings. obviously im not a mechanic so i may be over looking something vital. i've seen online that it can be caused by a bend in the metal cables that connect the controls, but they all seem fine. i'm wondering if anyone can give me some tips on what to look at next. i dont believe its anything to do with the car radiator or thermostat, as the change was instant after me removing and reinstalling the bodged control panel. i refitted the bodged one while waiting for the new one. thanks.
